We first taught Lindi Shuffle to get used to the Chasse/Rock Recover sequence. In the next class, we built off that by adding a vine in front of it to do Swamp Thang. Here’s a rundown of some new dances taught and reviewed from the Dance Hall 360 Intro/Beginner Line Dance class on Tuesday, 8/29/17. […]
Tonight’s lessons brought in a few recent favorites that featured a rumba box and 1-2-cha-cha-cha steps. We worked on shuffles and 3/4 turns as well as felt how different music can make a dance feel different. What we discovered was how in one case, it was liked just as is where other found it better […]

Here are the featured line dances from the Intro/Beginner Line Dance Class with Sheryl at Dance Hall 360 on Tuesday, 9/26/17:
It Ain’t My Fault
Tush Push
M.O.V.E.
Mamma Maria
I’m No Angel
Bullfrog On A Log
The featured dance in this class was “Heartache on the Dance Floor” by Dan Albro. Again, we have a dance with a lot of interesting sequences that just flows nicely. The music may seem fast for anyone not experienced at an Intermediate Level, otherwise it’s pretty darn cool.
The song’s phrasing falls off so much repeatedly that it could be looked at as needing several tags or restarts but I’ll admire that Albro just let all that go and had a sole restart towards the end of the dance to assist getting back on phrase as well as end nicely on the front wall. By doing this, it allowed multiple patterns to get the feel of different parts on the song therefore not making it so monotonous hitting the same steps sequences in the same parts of the song.

Blue Night Cha
Tonight’s lessons brought in a few recent favorites that featured a rumba box and 1-2-cha-cha-cha steps. We worked on shuffles and 3/4 turns as well as felt how different music can make a dance feel different. What we discovered was how in one case, it was liked just as is where other found it better to alternative music. This flexibility opens up the potential to be able to dance to more music and possibly like a dance that other music did not appeal to the dancer as much.
Sheryl’s 6pm teach:
All About That Bass
Aric’s 7pm teach:
Blue Night Cha
Here are a few alternative song suggestions for Blue Night Cha:
Blake Shelton – Honey Bee
Luke Bryan – Roller Coaster
Anahi (ft Wisen) – Rumba

I Like It
Whiskey Girl
Do the Mess Around
Sheryl made it back to the floor for some teaching! Tonight she covered 2 new dances for both Intro and Beginner students. The Intro class got some new moves with a hitch and the Beginner class got a seriously good taste of syncopation with Whiskey Girl which got a lot of good response. One dancer commenting, “This is going to be a lot of fun once we get it down.”
Here’s a list of featured dances:

American Kids
Do the Mess Around
Work, Work by Rob Fowler and Darren Bailey brings a retro swing sound to our dance floor. With steps that make complete sense regardless of where you are in the song, the dancer will find out that the challenge lies within not doing anything for several counts throughout as there are drags and holds all over.
